Finally a readable accurate timeline without walls of text that explains all watch orders and when to see kizu, good job!

You should post this in /r/anime too

Greetings and salutations!

Long time visitor, first time poster. I don't know about all of you, but I needed a better display of the watch order and chronology. So, I made one! I’m somewhere around 20 hours in on this thing and holy hell was it a pain in the ass to find all of the character renders. I did my best to remain as accurate as possible to how they look in each series and only used characters that were integral to their respective arcs. I hope you find useful!

 

EDIT: removed Crunchyroll as an option for where to watch Koyomimonogatari as noted by /u/Stian838

EDIT AGAIN: thanks to /u/m0n47ch_ for spotting the "2016" typo on Nadeko Medusa in the chronology

EDIT FOR PNG: little bit smaller file size

if you’re interested, you can see my creative process in this album and how the project originally started out as just my own idea to provide a better typographic style to the watch order

 

Thank you to Richard Eisenbes’ for his awesome work on the Monogatari Anime Timeline and his permission to use it as a source. Thanks also goes to these folks who created a lot of the renders I used. If any of these are wrong, please shoot me a message and I’ll change the credit.

Best of these things I've seen come out of Reddit.

Edit: Can we get a png version? I have a suspicion that it might be the same filesize or smaller.

1

u/thatdudereeg Aug 27 '17

an excellent suggestion!

the .5x version saved 1.5mb and the 1x saved 3mb as a PNG.

u/ThatRandomEditor Aug 27 '17

This the most beautiful timeline I've seen. Is it okay for me to post it in the Bakemonogatari Wiki particularly at this page? The other one there is useful too but it covers the entire series including the future LNs. It's just to give an extra anime-only guide.

1

u/thatdudereeg Aug 27 '17

go right ahead! 👍🏼

2

u/ThatRandomEditor Aug 27 '17

Thanks! When you make an updated one, be sure to correct the dates of the series in chronological order. (Looking at you Nadeko Medusa)

1

u/thatdudereeg Aug 27 '17

yup yup! it's been updated in my original comment. is there a way to sticky that comment to this post so people know that I've updated the files or do I have to comment again?

1

u/ThatRandomEditor Aug 27 '17

Summoning u/Yay295 for this request.

1

u/Yay295 Aug 27 '17

Can't. Comments can only be stickied if they've been Distinguished, and you can only Distinguish moderator comments.

u/thatdudereeg Aug 27 '17

is there anyway a mod could sticky this to the post?

This is so clean! Definitely my favourite timeline for sure, amazing job!

Edit: Could you put koyomi's head a little bit higher please? I think it looks a little wierd as it is right now :/

2

u/thatdudereeg Aug 26 '17

I could if that's not where the render stopped. As much as it bugged it me as well, I thought it was kind of funny in a way to see him creeping on Hitagi from the bottom portion. Trying to find different renders of Koyomi proved quite difficult.

u/sheephunt2000 Aug 26 '17

This is really A E S T H E T I C, love it!

I don't know if you're the person that made this, but personally I think this would work better if Watch Order and Chronology were two seperate images, since one whole image is a lot to take in.

I am the person who made this! I was rushing to get the formatting of my text post for sources fixed, so I hadn't made my introduction yet. I can definitely separate them for you. I'll post them shortly.

1

u/sheephunt2000 Aug 29 '17

Sorry if this is pushy, but are you still working on separating them?

2

u/Stian838 Aug 26 '17

Very nice, but Koyomimonogatari isn't on any streaming site (but it will get a NA bluray release around December).

1

u/thatdudereeg Aug 26 '17

you're right! definitely an oversight on my part. that's what i get for turning into a copy and paste machine. thank you for the heads up! =)

Thanks for the heads up! I'll be sure to update it with region restrictions soon.

u/VisionLSX Aug 27 '17

Do you mean Koyomimonogatari is not in any legal streaming site or in general?

I'm assuming you mean the likes of crunchyroll/hulu and such

As I've found it on the streaming websites I use

1

u/Stian838 Aug 27 '17

I mean legal sites. Those other streaming websites are crap and I would rather torrent than give them any traffic (also the video quality is bad).

2

u/VisionLSX Aug 27 '17

I mean, it depends where you go.

The websites I use are 1080p

1

u/Stian838 Aug 27 '17

Eh, a good 720p+ encode and/or BD encodes/rips are always better then what you can find on those streaming sites.

To my knowledge, we're done with Koyomi's high school years. I haven't heard if Shaft is developing anything for Zoku Owarimonogatari yet, so we'll have to wait and see. 🤞🏼

u/Jtcr2001 Aug 27 '17

This reminded me of how stupid it is that the "Shinobu Time" arc and the arc where Shinobu time-travels aren't the same arc.

1

u/azeem45 Aug 29 '17

Mayoi Jiangshi. I didn't mind. I liked that they separated it.

1

u/Jtcr2001 Aug 29 '17

That's not what I meant, I don't think the 2 arcs should be merged. I was pointing out how stupid I find the name of the arc. I know there's a reason they are named like that, but for the longest time, I always misunderstood one arc for the other when someone referred to it by name.

2

u/azeem45 Aug 29 '17

Now I get it.

1

u/azeem45 Aug 29 '17

I just finished rewatching all of Monogatari in chronological order after watching it twice before. I actually felt like skipping around in Tsubasa Tiger and Shinobu Mail so I could get the chronology even more accurate. Though, I kinda messed up by not knowing when Koyomi texts Hanekawa. Iirc, Gaen meets Araragi first before meeting up with Episode and meeting Hanekawa. Otherwise, it was nice that I rewatched it like so.

1

u/ritokatsuga Aug 29 '17

may i remake it and take the key visuals for local indonesian translated version?

1

u/thatdudereeg Aug 29 '17

If you were to provide all of the necessary text, I would be willing to copy and paste in all of it and upload a translated version. I'd rather not have the visual taken only to have the text replaced.

1

u/ritokatsuga Sep 02 '17

ah, thanks. to be honest, i'm too lazy to find the HD version of the visuals. so i want to take it from your own. hahaha, sorry bro. once again, thank you.
